A liquid atomization device includes: an inlet; an outlet; and a liquid atomization chamber. The liquid atomization chamber is provided in an air passage between the inlet and the outlet. The liquid atomization chamber includes a rotary shaft, a pumping pipe, a collision wall, a reservoir, and a drain port. The rotary shaft is rotated by a rotary motor and is disposed in the vertical direction. The pumping pipe includes a lower portion having a pumping port and an upper portion fixed to the rotary shaft, and is rotated in coordination with rotation of the rotary shaft to pump up water through the pumping port and centrifugally discharge the water. The pumping pipe generates, inside the pumping pipe, a whirlpool in the water in the reservoir by the rotation, and forms, at the center of the whirlpool, a void providing communication between the pumping port and the drain port.

A rotary atomization type painting device includes an atomization head that supplies paint from a paint supply machine. The atomization head has an outer member that includes a truncated conical body, and an inner member that is disposed inside the outer member. The inner member has an annular protruding part that protrudes toward a large diameter side opening. The paint is lead out from a plurality of lead-out holes of the inner member to a root of the annular protruding part. At a root position in an axial direction, an angle in a lead-out direction of each of the lead-out holes with respect to an axis, and an angle of an inner surface of the annular protruding part with respect to the axis are made equal.

A coating device includes: a rotating shaft; outer members; and an inner member connected to at least one of the outer members. The inner member includes: a cylindrical body which is connected to at least one of the outer member and includes an annular opening continuing to a coating-material diffusion surface of the outer member; a disk-shaped lid which is provided on the inner side of the opening and has an outer peripheral edge part of a smaller diameter than the opening; and a supporting part which connects the lid and the body. A rear surface of the lid and an inner peripheral surface of the body form a coating-material reservoir. An annular slit is formed between the outer peripheral edge part of the lid and the opening. The supporting part is provided more inside in the radial direction than the slit when viewed along an axial line.

A multi-disk spinning disk assembly for atomization and encapsulation applications. A number of disks 17a and spacers (33, 40) are stacked to form a disk stack 17 having a feed well 31 in the center core of the stack. The fluid to be atomized or encapsulated is delivered to the feed well 31. The fluid then flows into spacer channels (37, 41) within or on the surface of the spacers. The channels (37, 41) communicate the fluid toward the outer edges of the disks 17a. The disk surface past the spacers (33, 40) can have various configurations, such as teeth, weirs, or a bigger or smaller diameter, as desired for particular atomization or encapsulation characteristics.

A bell cup (3) of a rotary atomization-type coating device (1) is provided. This device has a rotary shaft (13) and a feed tube (15) inserted in the rotary shaft. The bell cup is fitted to a tip end part of the rotary shaft and has a coating material spreading surface (31) on an inner surface of the bell cup. The feed tube discharges a coating material to the coating material spreading surface. The coating material spreading surface includes a region extending from a predetermined position on a proximal end side to a distal end edge. The region is constituted of a convex curved surface toward an extension of the rotary shaft. The outermost surface of at least part (31B) of the coating material spreading surface is covered by a diamond-like carbon film (50) free from silicon at least on its outermost surface.

A multi-disk spinning disk assembly for atomization and encapsulation applications. A number of patterned disks are stacked to form a disk stack having a feed well in the center core of the stack. Each patterned disk has channels defined by spacers, with the channels and spacers being of varying depths, heights, and/or widths. The fluid to be atomized or encapsulated is delivered to the feed well. The fluid then flows into the channels, which communicate the fluid toward the outer edges of the disks. The fluid exits the disk stack from a circumferential gap, which is created by interposing spacing disks between the patterned disks.

The present application relates to a cartridge paint refilling device. More specifically the subject matter of the application relates to cleaning the paint adhered to the feed tube of the cartridge and prevent reduction of the painting quality and undesirable rotation caused by the paint residue. An annular flow path extending from a base end side towards a front end side in the insertion direction is disposed between the feed tube of the cartridge and the feed tube insertion hole of the cartridge supporting member. The cartridge supporting member is provided with a feed tube cleaning pipeline whose upstream side is connected with the circulation pipeline disposed at the cartridge supporting member and whose downstream side becomes a cleaning fluid discharge port and pens at the base end side of the annular flow path; and a pipeline witching valve which blocks communication between the circulation pipeline and the feed tube cleaning pipeline when the paint and the cleaning fluid are supplied to the paint chamber of the cartridge, and enables communication between the circulation pipeline and the feed tube cleaning pipeline when the cleaning fluid is supplied to the annular flow path.

A curved substrate with a film includes a substrate having a first main surface, a second main surface and an end surface, and an antiglare film provided on the first main surface. The substrate has a flat portion and a bent portion. A value obtained by dividing a reflected-image diffusibility index value R of the bent portion by the sum of the reflected-image diffusibility index value R of the bent portion and a reflected-image diffusibility index value R of the flat portion is 0.3 or higher and 0.8 or less.

A bell cup (3) of a rotary atomization-type coating device (1) is provided. This device has a rotary shaft (13) and a feed tube (15) inserted in the rotary shaft. The bell cup is fitted to a tip end part of the rotary shaft and has a coating material spreading surface (31) on an inner surface of the bell cup. The feed tube discharges a coating material to the coating material spreading surface. The coating material spreading surface includes a region extending from a predetermined position on a proximal end side to a distal end edge. The region is constituted of a convex curved surface toward an extension of the rotary shaft. The outermost surface of at least part (31B) of the coating material spreading surface is covered by a diamond-like carbon film (50) free from silicon at least on its outermost surface.

A spray system includes a spray applicator configured to apply a fluid to a target. The spray system also includes a rotary bell cup of the spray applicator, a splash plate of the spray applicator coupled to the rotary bell cup, and a fluid tip of the spray applicator. The fluid tip is configured to output the fluid onto the rotary bell cup. The fluid tip includes a fluid tip passage extending along a longitudinal fluid tip axis of the fluid tip. The longitudinal fluid tip axis intersects with the splash plate of the spray applicator. The fluid tip also includes a fluid exit port configured to output the fluid from the fluid tip passage onto the rotary bell cup. The fluid exit port extends along a fluid exit axis disposed at an angle relative to the longitudinal fluid tip axis of the fluid tip.
